For this series in Philippians, I am going to limit each post to one verse, and hopefully produce a short, succinct read for my friends who follow.
4:23 The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit.
As our last verse in this series, we come to what was my wife’s favorite verse in the New Testament when we first go married. Personally I though a simple benediction like this was somewhat odd as a favorite verse, but I stand corrected.
The passage speaks of the Savior in simple terms, and of His predominant nature, and the church as the recipients of His grace. It is a fitting closure to such a great letter between an apostle of the Lord and His people.
May the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit!
